Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features the first portrait of Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah, who was the 29th Sultan of Brunei and ruled from 1967 until his abdication in 2014. This coin was minted during his early years as Sultan, and it's interesting to note that the title on the coin does not include the numeral 'I' in the title, which is a unique feature of this particular coin.
